Wow. I’ve only just started testing it against GP, but it’s really slick and works really well. Lots more fine control than GP, and the only thing that isn’t quite as good is the photo editing on the app and web site, and that is on the roadmap. Oh, and I can’t see how to set up TLS but I might just be missing something.
they both have their pros and cons, immich is still in very early development and lacks some neccesery features in my books. thx for the suggestion tho
What? Now you’re just plain wrong.
Immich is more feature rich, has self-hosted AI, is 3 years old, has 52K+ stars on GitHub vs Ente’s 16K (with 2 less years no less), almost 4 times as many forks, and has a public roadmap.
How is that “very early development”? Want to give you the benefit of the doubt, but this feels very “Ente insider” to me. Outside of E2E encryption, what specifically does Ente offer that Immich doesn’t?
I currently use immich with 40k+ files.
I think what OP meant by ‘early development’ is the updates with break Changes.
Ive been using immich in docker self hosted for 1.5 years.
I use authentik for user management and single sign on.
The breaking changes have only ever been minor changes I’ve had to make to my docker compose file, its always come back with no issues after the well described changes in the release notes and several of the changes I didn’t even have to do because it did not apply to me.
This is petty standard stuff for anyone used to self hosting but if that sounds like its not for you then check out the roadmap. The stable version is expected next year sometime. Wait for that before giving it a try.

Personally I like the fast development, I find myself likely and using at least 1 new feature ever major update. I think this will easily become the best photo manager in 1 to 2 years and it will not longer be much of a competition
Using stars as a way of deciding if something is better is such a weird way to prove your rightness. And i personally don’t like that you have to self host. Ente has it as an option and it’s easy to do but that’s all i want it to be as with any service, an option. If you want to host photos for multiple users while respecting their privacy Ente is a better option. Photos are end to end encrypted, it means that only the person that uploaded the photo can see it (unless they shared it to someone else), not even the admin of the server (you) can see their photos. A problem with Ente tho is that the client has to do the work where as immich does it on the server so it’s faster and stronger. No, i’m not paid by ente to post these, are you tho?
